I sure hope so ;) I think what happened is that just before the release of ML 8.2 Mandrake decided to use the OSS drivers instead of the ALSA ones for via8233 based sound. But the ALSA 0.5.12a modules are still installed on your hard disk. To load ALSA 0.5.12a at boot only a slight change of /etc/modules.conf is needed, this recommendation is for the MSI k7t266 pro2 mainboard but I guess it works for other mainboards with via8233 based sound: http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/hard-details.php3?F_TYPE=mother&F_ID=3282 > Garrick HTH, -Frans _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
